President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Türkiye is "very closely" watching the recent developments in Syria, which happened in a flash over the course of a few days, as he said the country was taking all necessary precautions in this regard, APA reports citing Daily Sabah.
Erdoğan was speaking at a joint news conference with his Montenegrin counterpart Jakov Milatovic, who arrived in Ankara earlier on Monday.
He noted that Ankara hopes for the protection of Syria's territorial integrity and putting an end to instability in Syria based on the legitimate demands of the Syrian people, based on an agreement.
Erdoğan reiterated Türkiye's determination to ensure regional stability and peace, saying that Ankara was ready to do whatever was necessary to "extinguish the fire" in the region.
"Under the scope of our country's national security interests, we're following the process on the ground with every moment and taking all necessary precautions to ensure different incidents do not take place," he said.
